LJ has now reached to ππ΅π΅π΅ in his more-leisure-than-leisure survey of the years covered by this show!
What was going on in ’99?
β’ Britney Spears releases …Baby One More Time.
β’ Eminem releases The Slim Shady LP.
β’ Napster launches.
β’ Billy Joel decides that he is now a classical composer.
β’ Mariah Carey surpasses The Beatles as the act with the most weeks at #1 on the Billboard 100.
None of this will be played on this afternoon’s show!

Today, from 3 to 5 p.m., L.J. hosts End of the Century!
When L.J. last hosted, he stopped at 1982, so this show is going to be all 1983!
1983 is a fascinating year for music as we see the pop landscape fragment into a lot of different directions and new genres develop their tropes. Some of the heavy hitters in 1983:Β #Eurythmics!Β #Madonna!Β #Metallica!Β #NewOrder!Β #ZZTop!Β #ThePolice!

I had so much fun with the format last time, Iβm doing a Rock Blocks show again!
Ever wonder what Dolly Parton was doing from 1975 to 1999? Me too!
The last rock block show had blocks of Phil Collins, Sonic Youth, Gary Numan, Vince Clarke, etc.
This time around, I’ve got blocks from Eddy Grant, Siouxsie, Belle & Sebastian, Geoff Barrow, etc.
